Why wait? It’s a simple question, but one we don’t ask ourselves enough—especially when it comes to helping others. We live in a world where almost everyone is going through something. The loud ones may voice it, but many suffer in silence maybe due to fear of not being heard or simply refusing to inconvenienceContinueContinue reading “Why wait?”

Thinking Out Loud..
A friend randomly once asked;”Could you ever tell someone, ‘Oh, this thing you keep working on—nothing ever comes of it,’ with that tone of ‘why not just give up?’”Without hesitation, I replied, “I can’t say that to a friend.

A part of me
I have so many parts and layers to me. Good, bad, ugly layers. Some, my families get to see and experience, Some for friends, Some for me. And you know, not all these parts are shared. Friends don’t see what families see and families don’t see what I see. Did I forget lovers too? TheyContinueContinue reading “A part of me”
